Back again, as said on my own, just had two days servicing an cleaning inside the boat, a quick cruise about this morning to make sure all ok. had a run up past the old bridge structure outside Beccles turned round and up to the Locks, over 9' under Beccles old bridge when i went through. Just a few photos.
A new pontoon at the Locks for the paddleboarders.
It will need a high tide to get that boat back in.

That's wrong, boats can still use red after april and the 60/40 thing still goes, NI have a change for boat use but not the rest of the UK, construction plant and the like have to use white after april.
Still cant get my head round the new rules, the're changing all the time, i'll check with Stephen at the weekend, he thought he would have to clean his tank out and only supply white from April.

Hows diesel prices on the rivers looking?
Won't be good, After 1st April only white will be available, we can use up the red we have, but can't buy anymore red.

Pubs in Beccles - Butchers Arms, Ingate and Caxton Club
Hi Howard, you're selling Beccles short only mentioning those three pubs, although the best there's also,
The Kings Head (Wetherspoons) Bear and Bells, Wine Vaults to name three more, and as mentioned The Waveney house Hotel, other establishments are also available.
Paul.

PM Clive on here, If you mean Paul 'Richardsons' it's nothing to do with them now. Clive is independant.

Right now there are two places, north and south with spaces.
Clive has space at Brundall, I was looking at moving this year so contacted him, also thought about moving north but after lots of pondering we have decided it's too nice at Beccles to go, even after over 10 years there for me , will be stopping longer.

Back in Beccles now so that's another trip over, going home tomorrow due to both of us suffering from a bad cold.
It's only february and already had 3 trips across Breydon and back this year, that must be more than i've done in one year yet.
Next time i'll be on my own for a full cleaning, servicing and maintenance visit ready for the rest of the season.

They can throw all the money and resources they need to get the trains running again, but what about Somerleyton bridge now shut for boats for several weeks.

Safe travels on the rivers. It sounds windy out there and looks like being a wet morning too.
It was when we left Acle at 07.30. quite bad until we were just before Yarmouth, a good run across Breydon, now heading towards the sugar factory.
Thanks, Paul.

So we left St Olaves at 06.30 just as light was showing. Passed Goodchilds at 07.25 then across Breydon passing the Yacht station at 08.15 just as i hoped, caught the tide change perfectly, only upset for me was a smooth crossing of Breydon, would have liked a rough one.
Now at Acle bridge for the night then back across Breydon tomorrow heading for Brundall.
Photo's from today.

Not worried about a bit of cold, it's the winds that are worrying me having to assist a boat back across Breydon on Sunday.

After a horrible wet morning getting ready to leave the yard it cleared up for a nice cruise to St Olaves. Now moored on the free moorings, unfortunatly the electric post looks like it's tripped out from the high tides.
Somerleyton bridge is still out of order, With 7'6 close to high tide i could get under dropping everything down, glad it wasn't raining then.
